Sigurd 2015 Fjörd Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir

The label of Sigurd 2015 Fjörd Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir is like Dan Graham’s label for his 2015 Fjörd Adelaide Hills Chardy: the hills feature. For the Pinot, the hills are green, and, in between the two bumps, blue sky features, which could double as a fjord. Pinot Noir is a challenging grape, though I know the cheap labels I like – WA’s Mud Fish and NZ’s Pencarrow, and in Rosé you can hardly go wrong using Pinot Noir. This Sigurd has been made in a cool climate, which is best. It’s deep ruby in colour, with mushrooms in the aroma, and light-bodied.
